Any strong opinions on shoulder bags?

I've recently been considering buying a shoulder bag. The issue is that I've never really had anyone close to me use one frequently and I'm afraid I'd stand out a bit too much. To be fair shoulder bags aren't common in my country. The type of shoulder bag I'm taking about is more or less this type but not leather(probably something more tech-ish): https://images-cdn.ubuy.co.in/6450305062790426295796f4-brown-leather-small-sling-crossbody.jpg
